The Kanowna Belle Project Progress Towards the Underground Mine

The Kanowna Belle deposit was discovered in 1990 following encouraging assays from soil sampling and RAB
drilling. At the end of September 1993, diamond drilling had been completed to a vertical depth of 1,000 metres
and a resource of 22 million tonnes grading 5.73 grams of gold per tonne containing a million ounces of gold had
been defined. The deposit remains open at depth. Pre-production mining for the open pit began in November 1992, construction of the oxide treatment plant began
in January 1993 and the first gold was poured in September 1993. Sulphide ore roasting commenced in December
1994 and the underground mine development commenced in July 1995. The Kanowna Belle project is owned by the Golden Valley Joint Venture (GVJV), an unincorporated joint venture
with equal shareholdings between North Gold (W.A.) Ltd and Delta Gold N.L. North Gold are the managers of
the development and operations and Delta Gold are the managers of exploration throughout the GVJV tenements.
